Difference between Crustacean and Fauna of Australia

Crustacean vs. Fauna of Australia

Crustaceans (Crustacea) form a large, diverse arthropod taxon which includes such familiar animals as crabs, lobsters, crayfish, shrimp, krill, woodlice, and barnacles. The fauna of Australia consists of a huge variety of animals; some 83% of mammals, 89% of reptiles, 24% of fish and insects and 93% of amphibians that inhabit the continent are endemic to Australia.

Similarities between Crustacean and Fauna of Australia

Crustacean and Fauna of Australia have 23 things in common (in Unionpedia): Adaptive radiation, Amphipoda, Argulidae, Australian Museum, Barnacle, Brachiopod, Branchiopoda, Cephalocarida, Copepod, Crab, Decapoda, Dendrobranchiata, Insect, Isopoda, Lobster, Malacostraca, Maxillopoda, Nature (journal), Osteichthyes, Ostracod, Peracarida, Remipedia, Science (journal).

Adaptive radiation

In evolutionary biology, adaptive radiation is a process in which organisms diversify rapidly from an ancestral species into a multitude of new forms, particularly when a change in the environment makes new resources available, creates new challenges, or opens new environmental niches.
